So who would work for someone who constructs an advert like this?

seems like a refreshingly honest breath of fresh air as far as the usual corporate pish advertised.
you know the score before you start so tesco/stobart/agency kebab meat wearing a hi viz cabbages might just not apply and let others crack on with it if it suits them.

Yes.
Sounds like a bloke I could work for, no frills, no bs, telling it how it is…If you’re a waste of space ■■■■ off, if you’re a good lad who will work for me, I’ll look after you.‘’
I’d rather work for somebody like him who you know where you are with him, than the weasly non job type management team who would stab you in the back on a whim, and never back you.
I’ve worked for both types of firms, so I talk from experience, the former got more production and loyalty from me than the latter,.as the said latter always fail to see their contemptuous outlook on drivers is counter productive. 
(After saying that, I’d ■■■■ hate to go back to tipper work. 
)
I don’t see anything wrong with that job app, Sounds like a fair bloke to me.
Back in the late 60’s my first boss was a bit more direct when I went to see him for a job, He said in his finest Lancashire brogue, Sithy lad I’ll gi thee a two wicks trial, if tha caunt hack it tha can clock off & $%^k off 
Straightforward, cards on the table. Better than all the obviously fake promises in agency ads. You’d have to push hard to earn the max annual sum suggested, but you can work that out before you start.
If that was closer to me i would apply for it. He sounds decently honest, and that wage isn’t too bad. As robroy said, better than these non job types, which no matter how hard you work, your never late for any bookings, keep the motor tidy and damage free, but then your treated the same as another driver who can be a complete incompetent slob who is late for every booking, intently follows a sat nav where ever they go, and is lucky if a week goes by where they haven’t had an accident or damaged the unit. So yeah, this bloke sounds like he knows what he is looking for and will recognise you for just getting the job done and being a decent driver

We’ve plenty of knuckle draggers hankering for the 1970s again on here so there’ll be no shortage of applicants. Several of the prime suspects seem to have already posted.
Hourly rate is decent but he’ll want you chasing your arse around everywhere. Shame the company name isn’t there as I’m sure if it was there would be people who live in the area they cover who’d confirm they’re flat out on the limiter everywhere all the time.
This is the sort of conversation I have had with my employees at interview.
The advert is a bit too brutal for my style and if you feel ■■■■ hurt from it.
This is not the job for you.
I’d apply, I’d definitely work for someone like this. Refreshing to read something other than the usual corporate BS. Sounds like a straight forward sort of a bloke. You look after me and I’ll look after you which is how it should be isn’t it?
sent using smoke signals
nowt wrong with that at all imo, ive worked for some of the blue chip companies ect and have had to work with complete tossers who dont give a ■■■■■ about anything or anyone… i now work for a similar company as in the advert and its the best driving job ive had, i put the work in and adjust daily to the work loads ect and put my self out at times…
i have whilst working there a few personal problems and the company have been fantastic about it…

You really are ■■■■ obnoxious Conor …you just can’t help yourself can you. 
I’m one of the prime suspects no doubt, as you have previously accused me of such in the past in your inimitable pompous way.
We aint all ‘‘regimented agency 100 mile radius types’’ who lurrvve all the corporate ■■■■■■■■, and who presumably do our 15 minute checks carrying a clip board and wearing the obligatory hard hat.
There is no mention in the advert about using 70s methods, that is your own narrow minded interpretation, the guy is obviously ■■■■■■ off with useless arses rocking up for jobs…hey!, who know’s maybe corporate friendly ex agency types eh.
Sounds like my second boss to be honest(without the swearing), and I worked for him for 13 years I think.
£14 per hour is above average, and worked for below average…
If only more adverts were like this in my opinion!
Cue the anti-drug test, personal freedom, human rights namby pamby snowflakes who will soon be along complaining about their civil liberties and professionalism being questioned… 
Sounds like a good job to me ,is it driving a Dodge tipper for Hawletts ?
Count me in…
Sounds like a straight talking kinda boss.
It’s good money.
What’s not to like?

I must be a knuckle dragger ( wife disagrees, She thinks i’m a big girls blouse) I would go for that job. I have been working for these big high street chains/supermarkets for getting on for 20 odd years, but it makes you brain dead.
At least you don’t get the bull crap and remember tipper work is a rough trade, probably not for you Conor

i cant think of many quarries, building sites ect where the 70,s methods would be allowed anyway tbh,
Sounds much like our firm, and the kind of advert I’d have written if we advertised.
Some days you were rushing, plenty of days it was steady, some quiet days.
Mmmm £50K based on £14 upto £17 an hour! Not so sure. Working 5 day week + 1 day every other week is @ 275 days per year or £181.80 a day, but even at £17 an hour that requires a steady 10 1/2hr days - EVERY day. You need a fair bit more if most of the day is at £14.00 an hour. Just a thought.
